Fire And Brimstone

(album: Under The Grey Banner - 2011)

A pale sun rises
The crowds are gathered
Now red streams flow through the streets

Upon the pyre
Enchanted beauty
Her eyes upon me

"Witch! Wraith!
Light up the fire
And feed her to the flames
Let nothing remain"

Now as I see her
Standing before me
A stranger I know
Where have I heard that voice before?

I'm stirred to silence
'Neath brazen towers
Doubt fills my heart with fear

See clouds are massing
On the horizon
Her end is soon here

I should turn away
And leave her to her fate
But something draws me to the flames

"Stop! Halt!
Who is this man
That walks unharmed by fire
That crosses the pyre?"

Now as I see her
Standing before me
A stranger I know
Where have I seen her face before?

Now as I freed her
They all stand before me

Stop! Halt!
Don't let them pass
They must not get away
Guards! Stop them I say

Now as I see her
Carried before me
I finally know
Where I have heard that voice before!
So far beyond the shore
